The Spokespersons Digest, a publication of PRNigeria reports that that the event, which drew senior government officials, media professionals, academics, and stakeholders from the public and private sectors, saw 72 inductees from the Kano State Government, three from Jigawa State, and five from Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, and other private organisations.

Officiating the ceremony, NIPR President, Dr. Ike Neliaku, revealed that the Institute currently boasts over 31,000 registered members across Nigeria and maintains global professional alliances with 126 countries. He urged the new members to actively engage in NIPR activities, pursue continuous learning, and aspire to attain higher professional ranks, including the prestigious Fellow (FNIPR) status.

During a courtesy visit to the Kano State Head of Service, Dr. Neliaku commended the government for its significant investment in capacity building and professionalism within the public service. He noted that the state’s guiding principle—“Public service is a trust, don’t abuse it”—aligns with the foundation of public relations, which is built on trust and reputation.

Highlighting Kano’s leadership role in advancing the caderisation of the public relations profession in Nigeria, Dr. Neliaku lauded the state for being the first to implement the policy, enabling the induction of a large pool of PR professionals capable of practising globally.

In his response, the Kano State Head of Service, Alhaji Abdullahi Musa, commended NIPR for its professionalism and integrity, stressing that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf is committed to training, experience sharing, and providing the state’s workforce with relevant qualifications and exposure. These efforts, he said, are vital for the growth of the state and the nation.

Alhaji Musa also praised outgoing NIPR Council member, Dr. Sule Ya’u Sule, for his dedication to the growth of the profession, citing his personal sacrifices and logistical support as instrumental in increasing membership. He assured that the state’s commitment to professionalism extends beyond public relations to all sectors of the public service, ensuring integrity, efficiency, and accountability in governance.
